Yes, very important. In GCPM [1], you can say:
body { overflow: paged-x }
Likewise, to achieve vertical pagination with:
body { overflow: paged-y }
The choice of vertical vs. horizontal is not tied to writing
direction, it seems, so I'm not sure there are good auto values for
this. The 'paged-x' and 'paged-y' keywords have been easy to use in
the demo pages found here:

Note how the newspaper article paginate horizontally (when using the
Opera Reader build).
